The problem

“Globally over 1 Billion people lack access to a source of safe drinking water and sanitation”

Kusini Water is a social enterprise that builds water treatment systems from nanotechnology and macadamia nut shells. Our systems bring clean, safe drinking water to people in rural, peri-urban and informal settlements throughout the African continent.

We are different......

Our Solution

Our filters are a “plug ‘n play” device for any point of use water purification

Its modular: it can be custom built to your specification

Gravity or Solar powered: doesn’t need any electricity to operate and can use solar at large scale

social impact

Access to safe drinking water changes everything: when we install water treatment systems in communities we improve:

Health outcomes: Diseases from dirty water kill more people every year than all forms of violence, including war.

Education: Clean water helps keep kids in school, especially girls.Less time collecting water means more time in class. Clean water and proper toilets at school means teenage girls don’t have to stay home for a week out of every month.
